Thread: S10 four banger in a 57 english ford

Tweet

Im putting a s10 fourbanger in a 57 english ford. I don't want to use the s10 steering columb but the s10 key has the chip in it. is there a way to eliminate the factory security or by pass the security. so I can use the english ford key. I read on line that I can put a resistor in the yellow wireto simulate the chip but if I can eliminate it completly that would be better

That's a cool little wagon. Did you try your local GM dealers service dept? They might be able to help.

should be able to eliminate the passlock system

That chip is wired into the trucks computer system & shouldn't matter UNLESS you're using the S10 wiring harness.
If thats the case you have to put a diode(don't know what size) in the wiring harness to bypass that safety switch w/in the computer. We had to have this done on our 92 Park Ave when that wiring broke & the car wouldn't start. Our mechanic bypassed it for us....joe
